Seriously, I had a friend who started a big referendum on my health and sleep because “I stay up all night.” It started off as “jokes” which I tried to play back with saying things like “I do what I want haha cope and seethe”. It got more and more brazen with her though until I snapped and told her to get the fuck out of my business. She got upset, left our group chat, and our mutual friends thought I was too harsh lmao. Btw, it was THE WEEKEND and she barely understands my work schedule. This was two years ago and I now work night shift.

Not trying to turn this into an an AITA post, it’s just funny how much people don’t understand us. You know what the funniest part is? She herself was a third shift nurse but thought only she’s got reason to stay up.

PS stay far far away from any self described “mom friends”. It’s usually code for controlling behavior and zero boundaries.

This is looking like the rainiest and coolest NMF of the four years i've been and i'm a bit anxious.

To a sizable number of people, the term "country music" refers to exactly one type of music and the description is far from flattering. Before i'm even able to finish the sentence "country but not that crap on the radio-" I can already see them eye rolling and checking out lmao. I can say alt country, but even that term confuses people; plus i have a hard time describing Childers and Sierra Ferrell etc. as alt country when they're pretty straight down the middle and just happen to not suck.

I guess I end up just saying folk? No idea, even a lot of artists described as alt country don't sound much alike.

We of course plan on being respectful and discrete. We don't mind driving too, we weren't planning on swimming behind the creekside stage or anything stupid like that.
